The girls were kulsomlning, painting, scrub bing and gelling donations of furniture for the opening of the center. Now, a year later, the Commandos are again busy with paint brushes. The kitchen is being enlurged, new light, cheerful drapes were made and hung by Sgt, Mabel Sodcratrom and Captain Bernle Heidemann at the large street window, and throughout the center. Recently the girls laid new linoleum In the back service hall, painted tho windows and hung new cur tains. The girls even went so far as to repaint the outside of the building in the same col ors, red, white and blue. It is a tremendous satisfac tion to see how much coopera tlon and holp is given by- the people in this community, Joe Lake and Dean Starkcy, two carpenters, are working now nights at the center building cabinets and cupboards in the back service hall so there will be places to atore dust mops, extra supplies, etc. Mrs. Clara Shaw learned how inadequute our kitchen was for washing dishes, and gave the Commandos a $100 do nation to be used In getting running water, hot and cold, a kitchen sink, and a shower to be nut in for tho service men. On busy days and nights it has been difficult for the hostesses and Commandos to take care of the dirty dishes. There was only one cold water tap for water. Now a sink and running water will speed up our service and make the work much easier. The local plumber and steam fitters union are donating the plumbing The Commandos have been invited many times the past few week to visit Camp White, but the demand for entertain ment In the center make it im possible for the girls to go. Each Saturday night, while so many men aro on maneuvers around Bend, they will have an orchestra and dance at the cen ter. All during the evening the girls will also make and serve dozens of sandwiches to any service men wanting them. There are always three differ ent kinds of sandwiches, sweet and sour pickles, potato chips, homcmado cookies made by a local church or organization, and coffee at all times. We doubt if many people re alize the Commandos are mak ing and serving approximately 900 sandwlchc over a week end. We are having some trou ble with our points. We use dozens of eggs a week, many pounds of butter, cold cut meats for sandwiches and quarts of cream for coffee. We would like to express our ap preciation of one farmer who is now bringing in cream. One friend brought In a cooked, beautifully decorated baked ham.

If you should have anything you feel we could use to serve at our lunch counter, we would appreciate your bringing it in. Home-made pics, cakes, cookies, salads and above mentioned farm products. Our facilities for cooking are so limited that It must be something all ready prepared, outside of eggs which we boll by the dozen and make Into deviled egg sandwiches. Next week we will announce In detail about the 12 wounded men we are bringing here dur ing September 10 to 14. Four will bo from Barnes hospital, Vancouver, Wash,, four from Lettcrman's In San Francisco, and four from U. S. naval hos pltul at Mare Island. This pro ject of bringing wounded men to Klamath Is truly one of the high lights of our program. The letters we receive from these men after they return to their respective hospitals are so op pi eclat I vc. These men will nev er forget Klamath Falls.' Staff Sgt. Bob Barbee, who stayed at the John H. Houston home, when he was here over the Fourth of July from Letter man's hospital, visited here this last weekend. Pfc. Thomas McDanici, a ma rine from Orlando, Fla,, has spent 10 day with Merle West from the V. S. naval hospital at Mare Island. Tommy, as we all learned to know him, is en route to a hospital in Florida where he will have another op eration on his shoulder and arm. Lanny Ward, from St. Louis, Mo., who was wounded on his submarine, the Spearhead, this week sent the Commandos a postal card announcing he was coming back. Lanny stayed at wo-Star Admiral r Rear Adm. Alan G. Kirk, who commanded U. S. naval forces in Sicily invasion, keeps a vigil on the bridge of his flagship, garbed in stormy weather garb. the Glen Hout home and was inspired with his visit here. A letter was received this week from Wayne Fogelstrom, a sailor who was here in March. Wayne said, "I can walk now without any crutches, but I still limp pretty badly. Maybe I'll get some leave in about another month and, if I do, you can bet I am going to come to Klamath if I can possibly make it." It is thing like these that make the Commando determined to car ry on. One of our members, Tech. Sgt. Dorothy Constable, who works In the advertising depart ment at Penney' store, smash ed her foot this week. We miss Dorothy at the Center, her cheerful smile, and the hard work she does handling our sign making, our scrap book and decorating. Dorothy' hus band 1 overseas In Africa. We had a letter from the "In teresting People' Department" of the American magazine stat ing the picture and articles about the Commandos would be on the new stands the first week in October.
